WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS LYRICS
Verse 1
While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.
Verse 2
Fear not! said he; for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled mind,
Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind.
Verse 3
To you, in David’s town this day,
Is born of David’s line,
The Savior who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign.
Verse 4
The heav’nly Babe you there shall find
To human view display’d
All meanly wrapp’d in swathing bands,
And in a manger laid.
Verse 5
Thus spake the seraph; and forthwith
Appear’d a shining throng
Of angels, praising God, and thus
Address’d their joyful song.
Verse 6
All glory be to God on high,
And to the earth be peace;
Goodwill henceforth from heav’n to men
Begin, and never cease.
Amen.
One of the challenges I encountered as a beginner instrumentalist is playing by ear. however getting correct solfa notation of gospel songs enhanced my learning. hence I love. posting lyrics and solfa notations for songs so that others can benefit from what i know.
